Podcasts about Mercury

This week, emotional processes reach full ripening and begin to transform situations that may have been stagnant, stuck, or slow for quite some time. Attunement with intuition is strong for those with practices that keep them listening and anchored in love, while delusions magnify for those untethered from connectivity. The weekend brings a surge as Venus enters Aries and conjoins Saturn and Neptune with the Mercury Cazimi. This is Big Decision Energy, but Mercury is also still retrograde. Feel into your body for what is deeply true, and give voice and embodiment to it, but don't worry about all the details being fine-tuned now.✨✨✨This week-ahead reading for March 2-8, 2026 is an excerpt from this week's ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Somatic Space class⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ with Renee Sills.

Oh, Boy! It's Monday, Mercury retrograde is upon us, and we are rolling with the punches. Today we hear from callers about a long term friend lying about her boyfriend, how you won't miss being single if you get with somebody amazing, and a college guy's situationship that took turn for the worst.  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Episode 272In this podcast, New York Times best-selling author and astrologer Chani Nicholas discusses the astrology of the week and what it might mean for us all.The astrology of the week of March 2nd, 2026, is a real rollercoaster. In the middle of a messy Mercury retrograde in Pisces, Venus reaches its exaltation degree in the same sign, giving our connections and creativity a much-needed boost. Then the lunar eclipse in Virgo reminds us to let go of perfectionism in the fight for liberation. And Venus moves into fiery Aries, where it meets up with Neptune and Saturn, serving up both daydreams and reality checks. Now is the time to come together and clear out any clutter clouding our vision for the future.This episode covers:Mars' entrance into Pisces on Monday, March 2ndVenus' exaltation degree in Pisces on Monday, March 2ndThe South Node lunar eclipse in Virgo on Tuesday, March 3rdVenus' sextile to Uranus on Wednesday, March 4thThe Sun's trine to Jupiter on Thursday, March 5thVenus' entrance into Aries on Friday, March 6thThe Mercury cazimi on Saturday, March 7thVenus' conjunction with Neptune on Saturday, March 7thVenus' conjunction with Saturn on Sunday, March 8thMercury's trine to Jupiter on Sunday, March 8thThis episode was recorded on 01/14/2025.For more, check out your free daily horoscope on the homepage of the CHANI app — now on iOS and Android.Feeling overwhelmed by eclipse season, Mercury retrograde, and the rest of this month's astro mess?

The Sun and Jupiter spotlight positivity and optimism. Venus finishes up its journey through Pisces with an aspect to Uranus, then enters Aries and aspects Saturn and Neptune.

Timestamps [1:56] Mars enters Pisces (Mar. 2, 6:16 am PST), until April 9. When action is filled with meaning and sensitivity, it brings healing. [4:35] Moon Report! Virgo Full Moon Lunar Eclipse (Mar. 3, 3:38 am PST) at 12°53' Virgo and Pisces. See if you can find similar threads from these past eclipses: Sep. 1, 2016, and Mar. 3, 2007. Let go of excessive criticism and judgmental tendencies. [8:12] Lunar Phase Family Cycle (LPFC). This is the Full Moon (awareness point) in an LPFC that began on Sep. 2, 2024, with a New Moon at 11°4' Virgo. The First Quarter (first action point) was on June 2, 2025, at 12°50' Virgo. The Last Quarter (last action point) comes on Nov. 30, 2026, at 09°03' Virgo. [10:34] Void-of-Course (VOC) Moon periods. The Moon in Leo opposes Mars in Aquarius (Mar. 2, 4:27 am PST). It's VOC for 7 minutes, then enters Virgo (4:34 am PST). Release difficult emotions through physical exercise. [11:52] The Moon in Virgo trines Uranus in Taurus (Mar. 4, 6:53 am PST). It's VOC for 4 hours, 3 minutes, then enters Libra (10:56 am PST). Adopt an “I can fix that!” attitude. [12:48] The Moon in Libra squares Jupiter in Cancer (Mar. 5, 3:22 pm PST). It's VOC for 1 day, 4 hours, 39 minutes, then enters Scorpio (Mar. 6, 8:01 pm PST). Address relational and communicative concerns with fairness and objectivity. [14:39] The Sun trines Jupiter (Mar. 5, 9:14 am PST) at 15°8' Pisces and Cancer. This is a genuinely supportive and feel-good transit. Great for tapping into your intuition, self-promotion, exploring creativity, luck and taking risks. [17:11] It's cazimi time! The Sun conjoins with Mercury (Mar. 7, 3:02 am PST) at 16°52' Pisces, on the Sabian symbol 17 Pisces, An Easter Promenade. Check out Ep. 259's Listener Question for a refresher on cazimi periods. Pay attention to your intuition and celebrate your spirituality with a traditional public ritual. [19:42] Venus sextiles Uranus (Mar. 4, 8:41 am PST) at 27°49' Pisces and Taurus. Relationships and finances could take an unexpected turn. [22:27] Venus enters Aries (Mar. 6, 2:46 am PST) and will be in this sign until Mar. 30, 2026. Venus knows exactly what she wants in Aries, a no-frills placement. In relationships, the thrill is in the chase. [24:15] Venus conjuncts Neptune (Mar. 7, 3:27 am PST) at 1°16' Aries. Let go of what drains you and no longer suits you. [27:00] Venus conjuncts Saturn (Mar. 8, 6:40 am PST) at 2°38' Aries. This transit can help you clarify needs versus wants. Ask for help. Do a ritual. [29:53] Mercury trines Jupiter (Mar. 8, 10:23 pm PDT) at 15°5' Pisces and Cancer. Expect a flood of sensory overload and miscommunication, alongside literal disruptions like travel delays or severe weather. Document ideas, but try to avoid cherry-picking facts.

Opposing the Sun, Mercury retrograde, Mars, and Venus in Pisces, this lunation highlights where we have been over-managing, over-functioning, or trying to perfect what is ready to be released.With Jupiter in Taurus forming a supportive trine, this eclipse offers stabilization and grounding as we integrate the rapid shifts of eclipse season. It marks a purification point. A clearing of mental loops, nervous system strain, and patterns of self-criticism before Aries season initiates a new cycle.The episode also touches on:Mars entering PiscesVenus entering AriesMercury retrograde cazimiVenus conjunct NeptuneThe closing of a karmic chapter before the new astrological yearTHANK YOU for being here.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Pound Jewelry⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ use the code ALI20 for 20% off⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Kamana Coffee Replacement ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠use the code ALIO15 for 15% off⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Earth Archive's Rainforest Serum⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ - use the code ALIOFSTEDAL for 11% offThank for you being here.Your presence means the world.

There will be disturbances in the force, and fear mongering out in the world, with an Eclipse and Mercury Retrograde in early March. Saturn surges through early Aries launching a long-term transit (2026-2028) amplifies themes of structure, discipline, accountability, and defining realistic action plans.  Mars pulses through Pisces until April 9 when he mobilizes in home court Aries. Mars in Pisces through March brings compassion-driven action, creative force, and sometimes diffuse energy — strong for intuitive or healing work. Last full month of Uranus in Taurus: Ongoing revolution of values, finance, and material security frameworks. Before Uranus transits into Gemini in April were feel like we are straddling dimensions, at a crossroads, and perhaps living in multiple dimensions simultaneously. Altered realities and time distortion pervades, and many are feeling the toll of these non-physical energies on their bodies. Timelines are ending and colliding at the same time! Early March feels tentative as if the other shoe is about to drop.  Something is coming and we can feel it, sense it, clarity obscured by the Lunar Eclipse and Mercury Retrograde in Pisces occludes with illusion & confusion .  All our release and shadow work comes in handy now, with Mercury retrograde in Pisces until 3/20.  With Mercury in Pisces you May Experience: Enhanced intuition, Vivid Dreams, Heightened Imagination, Blasts from the Past. Watch for: Blurred Boundaries, Confusing Communications, Active Addictions, Projections onto others. Remember your RE words as in: Resolve relationship issues, Release old narrative, Reassess Clarity vs. Illusions. Remember communications need more clarity - Revise projects from late January–February.. The proverbial sh++ hits the fan right at the get go of March with the Lunar Eclipse on 3/3 exasperated by Mercury Retro. Eclipse Season Continues  Late February into early March carries highly charged energy, with both a Solar Eclipse (Feb 17) and the Lunar Eclipse (Mar 3) activating deep transformation, especially around identity, relationships, emotional truth, endings, and beginnings.  Key Focus Areas Virgo–Pisces Axis (Eclipse Axis): Health routines, work systems, service Emotional discernment and soul integration -Recognition of where perfectionism or avoidance no longer serves  Re-calibration of boundaries between practical life and inner truth Initiation Energies Toward Mid-Month: With the New Moon in Pisces (Mar 18) and the Sun entering Aries (Mar 20), March bridges completion and release with fresh starts in spiritual intention and bold action. Big Eclipse Episode arrives on 3/3 is Blood Moon Full Moon Lunar Eclipse. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

This playlist is 63% vinyl friendly. Very poor. The Vertere DG-1 Dynamic Groove. One commentator queried whether ‘the design wandered in the direction of form over function‘, but this, the company’s entry level version, was voted in What Hi-Fi‘s updated 2025 ‘20 very best turntables of (the magazine’s) lifetime‘… but it had detractors elsewhere. My first thought was ‘sandwich’ and lo and behold the review mentions the plinth’s ‘three layers of acrylic reinforced with a steel chassis to give a rigid yet well-damped structure‘ with that middle layer, from a distance, reminding me of some marbled cheese. Near £2k for one standard version spotted on eBay and £3550 for a DG-1S updated model, with a bullet pointed spec to match. When you get up to these prices (and way, way beyond) manufacturers are duty bound to work overtime to justify their prices. NB: Apologies. A bit of a glitch in recording my parts for this show but they just about do the job. Any track marked * has been given either a tiny or a slightly larger 41 Rooms tweak/edit/chop and the occasional tune might sound a bit dodgy, quality-wise. On top of that, the switch between different decades and production values never helps in the mix here. Lyric of Playlist 149 On another day and in another frame of mind it could have gone to Baby Rose but much aided by a gorgeous key change backdrop, the gold star sticker goes to Banderas! It’s hard to tell though if their ‘There is no rehearsal. No second chance. No false start. No better circumstances… ‘ words of wisdom would change much with the type of peeps in their video. 00.00 (Intro) THE FLAMINGOS – Stars (Edit) – Unreleased demo – 1983. Episode #1 for info. 00.41 NEW ORDER – Doubts Even Here (Instrumental) (Cargo Demo) (2019 Remaster) – Movement, Definitive Edition Boxset – Warner Music – 2023 Doubts Even Hear? I should coco, and if you want ‘tentative’ in your music then this has it in shed loads. My guess is this maybe wasn’t Hooky’s first stab at the track in the band’s rehearsal room but you can nearly hear him finding his way into and over the ARP Quadra’s strings. 05.15 COCTEAU TWINS – Road River and Rail (Live) – Stream only – 2026 Live in 1991 but only very recently uploaded to the net, a mixing desk recording from The Warfield, in San Francisco and a rare treat to hear Liz this clear in a gig setting. At your leisure, search out the rest of the gig. There’s no visual from the above show, so here’s a barely rescued – but previously unseen/unpublished – photo of mine. Liz and Simon soundchecking at Newcastle’s Tiffany’s, 19.4.84. Photo credit / copyright: Dec Hickey 08.37 JOHN CALE – Thoughtless Kind (M:FANS) – M:FANS, 2LP – Double Six – 2016 A pedestrian, sledgehammer beat and a more forceful take on the lyrics than found in the ex-Velvet Underground man’s original. To my ears, they’re better suited here. 13.59 EMERSON, LAKE & PALMER – Take A Pebble * – Emerson, Lake & Palmer, LP – Island – 1970 I bought this album maybe four or five years after release and without doubt after having heard maybe just one of the three tracks on it I had taken to. I wouldn’t have been listening to any radio that might have played this album, so I’m guessing I borrowed it from a mate – very likely Phil Harris or Tom Locke (RIP). Greg Lake’s vocals were the thing for me back then and on my National Panasonic SG-1070L I’d have skipped Keith Emerson’s often lengthy rock-orchestral leaning keyboard workouts from all three… and likewise it’s a massive edit on the show for Take A Pebble. 17.33 BABY ROSE – Stop The Bleeding – Through And Through, LP – Secretly Canadian – 2023 If I thought the vibrato in Baby Rose’s vocal on the last 41 Rooms’ show entry (‘Go’) reminded me of Anonhi/Antony and the Johnsons then this does so with knobs on… as it maybe sounds even more of a song and arrangement the latter could have penned. 21.17 A RACE OF ANGELS – Golden – Broadcast No. 1, CD only – Luv Classics – 2005 It’s not often a CD gets a visual look in on 41 Rooms but the majority of Broadcast No. 1’s tracks have been or are on course for inclusion… and there was no vinyl. A 21st century left field folk soul beaut. Saluting Yeofi Andoh once again. 23.56 KRAFTWERK – Boing Boom Tschak * – Electric Cafe, LP – Kling Klang / EMI – 1986 The German maestros with some playful mid ’80s electro. Who else could it be? 27.01 BESIDE (with BERNARD FOWLER) – Odeon (Dance Mix) – 12″ – Celluloid – 1984 In 1984 the only place I’d have heard this was on John Peel’s radio shows – and he was partial to some electro. With the other side playlisted on 41 Rooms years ago, that would make this Afrika Bambaataa-produced 12″ a bargain to me these days, at less than the price of a pint on Discogs. Back in 1984, ordering it on import from Bedford’s HMV (as I did) its £5.29 price tag would seemingly have between five and ten pints plus worth! 32.37 MIDNIGHT STAR – Midas Touch (Vocal Extended Remix) – 12″ – Solar – 1986 With Electro roots, some breezy mid ’80s glitzy dance which has aged far better than – ‘Look away now’ (or don’t look at all) – the clothes and hair in the video. 38.42 ROZALLA – Born To Luv Ya – 12″ – Pulse-8 – 1990 At some point, when I do get to wade through the Record Mirror‘s I have from the the late ’80s/early ’90s I’d put a quiet fiver on the late James Hamilton having used ‘bubbling’ in a review of this particular mix of the tune. Par for the course lyrics but given some decent beats Rozalla has a voice that more than matches. 43.00 THOMAS LEER – Forgive and Forget – 1982, CD only – Klanggalerie – 2015 When I first happened on the 1982 CD recordings I thought Leer had re-found his youthful energy in the ‘now’. It’s in the title, Dec… so, a ‘series of tracks for unreleased album circa 1982‘ states the man himself. That would put them around the time of his Letter From America and Contradictions EPs but way before the ‘pop’ album, The Scale Of Ten. Forgive and Forget is though definitely a dry run for that album’s belter, Control Yourself. 47.23 MINT ROYALE – I Don’t Care – See You In The Morning, CD only – Faith & Hope Records Limited – 2005 Aagghh, it’s another CD… but needs must, as no vinyl surfaced and by this point Neil Claxton was flying solo as Mint Royale. 51.48 OSCAR FARRELL (feat SAMPHA) – Dream Therapy (George FitzGerald remix) – Download only – ? – 2026 The So Far South EP original rightly has many admirers but I’m more with this moodier take. Screenshot 55.22 NOSTALGIX – Mess With Me – Download only – Confession – 2019 Out of Vancouver, British Columbia, she seems through the years to have occasionally just digitally floated singular tracks out there. 58.32 SUICIDE – Ghost Rider – Self-titled, LP – Red Star Records – 1977 There’d be a bunch of my early ’80s mates who’d have gone for the album but it’s only this track that grabbed me. 01.01.01 CABARET VOLTAIRE – Nag Nag Nag (Live 2025 Single Edit) – Download only (for now) – Mute – 2026 ‘Updating’ and then capturing – just ‘right’ – this classic track’s first live outing in forty five or so years could have gone wrong but all involved nailed it, and seeing as I caught four of the Cabs’ six gigs last year there’s a good chance I was in on this actual recording. In fact, given the advances in sound technology Nag is likely sounding better in the room than it would have done live back in 1979-82… something I never witnessed. 01.05.10 THE SOUND – Heartland (Mike Read session, 1980) – The BBC Recordings – 2CD only – Renascent – 2004 If Adrian Borland and crew were pushing for a radio session in their early throws (who wasn’t) I’d have thought John Peel would have got in there first. The band did subsequently do a Peel session but here Mike Read edged it and the band were firing. 01.08.19 JOY DIVISION – Warsaw – An Ideal For Living, 7″ EP – Enigma – 1978 I never owned this original 7″ but somewhere around 1980-81 and through the back pages of the inkie press I bought the subsequent 12″ from an ‘MJ’ in Crewe who reckoned in an enclosed note he’d leant Steve Morris £60 to pay for the sleeves. When I sold the single years later I thought I’d kept the note… but if I did, it then went AWOL. 01.10.40 TURNSTILE – Dreaming – Never Enough, LP – Roadrunner – 2025 They’ve eased up here on their early hardcore leanings which might go some way to why this tune gets a thumbs up from me and those who take occasionally take a punt on an album because of the sleeve could still be in for a shock. 01.13.00 TV21 – Ideal Way Of Life – A Thin Red Line, LP – Deram – 1981 Other tracks on the album have already graced 41 Rooms as indeed they did back in Winkles in 1981-82. 01.15.27 THE TEARDROP EXPLODES – Went Crazy – Kilimanjaro, LP – Mercury – 1980 Julian in 1980. Sounding ‘quirky pop’ in 2026? 01.18.03 NATURAL SCIENTIST – See Through You – 7″ – Dental Records – 1982 Even though I bought their Terminal Velocity debut 12″ at the time, this their follow up somehow by-passed me for four decades 01.22.07 IRMA THOMAS – My Heart’s In Memphis – My Heart’s In Memphis – The Songs Of Dan Penn, CD only – Rounder Records – 2000 Criminally, only seven thousand plus peeps have ever viewed the fan video online of Irma on an outside stage, live in New Orleans from 2003 and I nearly went with its muffled sound here, as the more she gets in to the song the more she really lives it. 01.25.53 STEVIE WONDER – (I) Don’t Know Why (I Love You) – 7″ – Tamla Motown – 1968-9 For the UK release Motown couldn’t quite make up there mind on the title – but this stark outpouring and arrangement is still a killer, even though it was maybe trumped for radio play by the lusher, romantic appeal of the b-side, My Cherie Amour. 01.28.25 MT JONES – I Don’t Understand – Joy, LP – ? – 2026 New(ish) blue-eyed retro soul with as much effort on the visual. A fab single but I’ve got a feeling an album of his accentuated vocal might be too much for me. We’ll see. 01.31.49 WILLIE HUTCH – Hurt So Bad – Season For Love, LP – RCA – 1970 Before his switch to maybe his more spiritual Brother’s Gonna Work It Out home of Motown. 01.34.39 BANDERAS – This Is Your Life (PanoΣigma Edit) – Stream only – ? – 2019 Just the one album, squarely aimed at the mainstream, and some cerebral tunes from these two shaven-headed girls. I’m not sure how much the decent lyrics and sumptuous key change helped but this was their biggest UK hit. Even in the sometimes throwaway nature of ‘pop’ charts, quality will out. 01.39.36 DIANA BROWN & BARRIE K SHARPE – Eating Me Alive * – 12″ – FFRR – 1992 ‘Weaving together many different dance music sounds of the late sixties/early seventies, including such as vintage Jackson 5 and Norman Whitfield era Temptations, Timmy Thomas beats and Chicago Transit Authority guitar chords (“I’m a man, yes I am, and I love you so”), this brilliant intensely driving jiggly chugger has been promoed as a twinpack with 0-104.7-0bpm Undisputed Mix Part 1 & Part II, 0-104.7bpm Original Groundbeat, 0-105.25-0bpm Funky Funky Sugar Heavy Groundbeat Mix, 0-105.4bpm One Trip Too Many Mix, more recently influenced grooving 115.8-0bpm Groundbeat House Ensemble/Instrumental, hi-hat hustled 118.7bpm Undercover Dub Mix 1 and 118.6bpm Undercover Dub Mix 2, Dianamite!‘ – James Hamilton, Record Mirror (Music Week), 20.6.92 Any time I re-edit etc I really should remember the source of the original… and there’s a heavy 41 Rooms re-edit going on here. Whatever. James Hamilton’s ‘vintage Jackson 5’ reference is spot on and the bridges and chorus are so strong they make the verses sound absolutely tepid. Weird. 01.45.08 RHYTHIM IS RHYTHIM – Strings Of Life (‘Original Piano Mix’) – 12″ – Transmat – 1987 ‘So enduringly popular and still steadily selling that it could follow A Guy Called Gerald up the chart, Derrick ‘Mayday’ May’s synthetic strings stabbed and sawed techno pioneeringly jerky instrumental leaper is now out here in its frantic acidic 130/129 1/5-130-0bpm Exclusive Remix, more scrubbingly hustling organ accented 128 1/5-127 4/5-128-128 1/5bpm Flam-boy-ant Mix, and piano emphasising jerkier 122 1/5-122-121 2/5-121 1/5bpm Piano Mix, flipped by the washing machine ‘sizzled’ 129-129 1/3bpm ‘Kaos’ plus the ‘Magic Juan’ Atkins created jiggly wriggling Model 500 ‘Off To Battle’ in its 125 2/3-126 1/5bpm 2emix and 126 1/5-126 2/3bpm Original Version‘. – James Hamilton, Jocks, 3.89 ‘Based on a piano sequence by May’s friend Michael James. He dropped in for a visit at May’s house and sat down to play a piano ballad he had been working on called, “Lightning Strikes Twice”. This piece went into May’s sequencer and was kept there until May decided to listen to it all the way through. He found some portions which interested him, and he started to work with it. The song was originally at 80 BPM before May increased the tempo, chopped it up into loops, and added percussion and string samples’. Wikipedia The history of this stark track is interesting. I called this ‘near punk like, house / techno’ on the show, what with its crude/rough arrangement feeling like it nearly takes four minutes to settle… just in time for it to sound like it’s breaking down on the outro! And it’s become a classic! Enough to warrant a bunch of remixes and the mighty ‘live with orchestra’ version that follows. 01.52.18 RHYTHIM IS RHYTHIM – Strings Of Life (Live, Weather Festival, Paris, France) – Stream only – 2015 Derrick May, with Francesco Tristano (ex-Aufgang) loving it big time on extra keyboards, with the weight of the full Philharmonic Orchestra Lamoureux, under the direction of Dzijan Emin… and all beautifully captured by ‘producer, Amos Rozenberg and Paramax Films in 4K with 9 Cinema cameras by Samuel Petit for Arte TV‘… it says somewhere.

Yes once again… Mercury is in retrograde!

On Episode 11 of Season 6 of the Old Radio Comedy Podcast,we bring you the May 31, 1944 broadcast from The Mercury Wonder Show, “Donovan's Brain Spoof,” and the Apr. 29, 1945 broadcast from The Charlotte Greenwood Show, “Date Mixup.” Enjoy!

In episode 526 of The Astrology Podcast we look ahead at the astrological forecast for March of 2026, with astrologers Chris Brennan and Austin Coppock. We are coming off the heels of some incredibly momentous planetary alignments, so we spend the first half of the episode doing a deep dive into recent news events to see how the astrology has been manifesting before transitioning into our breakdown of the transits for the month ahead. In the news segment, we explore the impact of the exact Saturn-Neptune conjunction, particularly how it has been revealing things that were previously concealed, most notably with the release of the Epstein files. We also discuss how the recent eclipse magnified Pluto's transit through Aquarius, accelerating themes around AI agents, humanoid robotics, and discussions of extraterrestrial life. Finally we note the astrology surrounding the very serious geopolitical escalations currently unfolding with Iran. As we move into the forecast for March, we find ourselves still deep in the heart of eclipse season, navigating a total Lunar Eclipse in Virgo that is heavily colored by a number of overlapping alignments. We break down the challenges of a particularly debilitating Mercury retrograde in Pisces, the reality-distorting effects of the inner planets crossing the Saturn-Neptune conjunction in Aries, and how Jupiter stationing direct in Cancer might offer some helpful silver linings and protective intercessions during an otherwise volatile month. Finally, we highlight a few windows of opportunity amidst the chaos, including a very positive Mars-Jupiter trine that forms the basis of our best electional chart of the month.

Picture this: you've got a massive March launch planned, a to-do list longer than your unicorn tail, and then — you fall UP the stairs, your back seizes, your menstrual cycle murders your ADHD meds, and Mercury decides it's doing SOMETHING (retrograding? microwaving? who knows).In this raw, funny, and deeply wise episode, Leonie Dawson shares EVERYTHING that went sideways in one wild pre-launch week — and the surprising toolkit that helped her claw her way back to clarity, momentum, and joy. From beef liver capsules to frankincense smoke bombs, from kinesiology to emergency osteopath appointments, this is what it ACTUALLY looks like behind the curtain of a successful launch.Leonie also gets beautifully honest about the inner growth that launching demands — the fear, the freeze, the false belief that everyone else has it together while you're in chaos. Spoiler: they don't. And she proves it.Topics CoveredWhat really happens behind the scenes of a launch (the chaos no one shows you)How Leonie's Backstage Pass program was born and why 111 people signed up at $111 (!!!)Supplement timing hacks for neurodivergent brains and Metamucil as a supplement hackEnergy clearing practices: altar work, smudging with frankincense, myrrh & dragon's blood resinGrounding practices before and after deep coaching callsKinesiology and energetic support during intense business seasonsTake Action Club + Grow Mastermind: what they are and how Backstage Pass works inside themEven the most polished-looking launch has chaos behind the scenes. You are not an anomaly. Life happens to everyone. Leonie reframes launching as spiritual and personal expansion — you come out the other side a bigger, wider, more capable version of yourself. Launching is a growth process, not just a sales strategy:Pre-launch energy clearing is real work: Altar reset, saining, grounding before coaching calls — these are not woo-woo bonuses, they are essential maintenance for sensitive and creative entrepreneurs. Backstage Pass shows you the REAL launch: Not the highlight reel — the broken guitar strings, the frozen moments, the daily revenue figures, and the real-time problem-solving that gets results anyway. The months Leonie does structured planning are consistently her highest revenue months.  Notable Quotes"In every single person's launch, no matter how polished they look on the outside, life happens. Nothing goes to plan. You are not an anomaly." "Launches grow you. They make you uncomfortable. They push you to your limits. You will lose your faith and your courage and your belief over and over again — and then find it again." "Your bones are literally not aligned. There is no way your energy and spirit can be aligned when your bones aren't." "I actually learned so much more about launching from Backstage Pass than any other launch program I'd ever purchased, including $2,000 masterclasses." — Backstage Pass Member"Even when things get tricky and hard and stuck, I promise this is all part of the journey. Momentum can happen anyway." — Leonie Dawson Links & Resources MentionedBackstage Pass: leoniedawson.com/backstageTake Action Club + Grow Mastermind: leoniedawson.com/academyUnicorn Biz and Life Academy (100+ programs): leoniedawson.com/academyCreative Goddess Embodied (deep creativity program): in the AcademyMidas Touch (11-day meditation): in the AcademyGet Dopa Supplements (ADHD-specific supplement blend): mentioned as a personal product Leonie uses#WomenInBusiness #NeurodivergentEntrepreneur #LaunchStrategy #ADHDandBusiness #CreativeEntrepreneur #WomensWellness #BusinessMindset #BackstagePass #LeonieDawson #SpiritualBusiness

JOIN SHERI HORN HASAN @ https://www.karmicevolution.com/astrologically-speaking to dissect how the themes of this eclipse have manifested thus far & what to expect now!First, this podcast reminds us that we're still in the waxing portion of the monthly lunar cycle which began with February 17's Aquarius New Moon solar eclipse which squared Uranus in Taurus.We knew then that there would be sudden & potentially shocking revelations this month. Hence, the first quarter lunar square of the Gemini Moon to the Pisces Sun February 24 has had us asking many questions (Gemini=communication & curiosity) the answers to which have previously remained vague & unclear (Neptune-ruled Pisces=confusion.)Known as the “crisis in action” portion of the monthly lunar cycle, this first quarter square represented the growth of the seeds planted at the Aquarius New Moon solar eclipse. It was then we were asked us to separate forward thinking humanitarian ideological beliefs from groups with fixed ideologues whose narrower sets of beliefs take us backward in time. As we move toward March 3's Virgo Full Moon lunar eclipse, which occurs at 3:38 a.m. PT & 6:38 a.m. ET at 12'54” of the Mercury-ruled sign of analytical thinking based on facts from which we may draw conclusions, we face the confusion & frustration of getting only vague, inconclusive answers from the Pisces Sun, as noted. Nowhere was this more obvious than during former first lady & Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's forced testimony in front of the GOP majority ruled House Oversight Committee on February 26. The ideological divide noted at the Aquarius New Moon solar eclipse became obvious at Clinton turned her clarity-seeking questions back onto the committee & it's true purpose.Despite the fact that convicted sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell “took part in budget discussions related to the first Clinton Global Initiative conference; talked through challenges about it with both Clinton aides and Publicis Groupe, the company that produced the inaugural event; and arranged to wire $1 million to pay Publicis for its work on “the Clinton project,” according to emails in the massive cache of documents collected as part of the government's investigations of Mr. Epstein,” as per the New York Times, Calling this “partisan political theater,” & “and an insult to the American people,” Clinton derided the committee for wasting time asking her questions instead of calling for the testimony of people mentioned numerous times in the recently released Epstein documents.People like Elon Musk, U.S. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, & President Donald Trump--who's mentioned thousands of times in these documents as has been reported now by many reputable media outlets. MERCURY RETROGRADE IN PISCES KICKS OFF AN ANNUAL REVIEW OF THE EMOTIONAL QUALITY OF LIFE No surprise that such confusion might arise as this occurred just after Mercury stationed retrograde at 22'34” Pisces late February 25 & early February 26, depending on your time zone. Mercury will remain in retrograde motion until he stations direct again at 8'29” Pisces, & this particular retrograde cycle kicks off a year of Mercury retrogrades through the water element. This podcast discusses the deeper meaning of Mercury retrograde periods in general, and the specific call during this next year for us to dive deeply into past emotional habits & relationships to help us release hidden unconscious drives based on past experiences.If we can bring such knowledge out of the unconscious portion of our psyches & into the light of greater consciousness, we can then make the positive changes necessary for greater happiness going forward.As a harbinger of the beginning of such a review period, we're seeing now being revealed the previously hidden names of those in contact with Epstein as he carried out building his international criminal pedophile ring. Some participated, some advised him on how to avoid further legal or public censure after his 2008 conviction for soliciting a minor for prostitution; others simply sought favor from him because of his money & influence &/or vice versa.THE PROMINENCE OF ECLIPSE THEMES IN THE COLLECTIVE AS WE APPROACH THE MARCH 3 LUNAR ECLIPSEEither way, though, this foretells the manifestation of this particular set of eclipse themes, which is that they involve paperwork, communication, & news, along with a young person. At the first solar eclipse the young person in the news was five-year-old Liam Consejo Ramos, taken by ICE along with his father into detention in Texas, whose bunny ear hat & spiderman backpack picture appeared as front page news across the U.S.Now, however, as we approach the March 3 Virgo Full Moon lunar eclipse, the spotlight has shifted to the 13 or 14 year old girl who's testimony of rape by Donald Trump was deleted from the FBI interview files & therefore not released with the rest of the Epstein documents.This missing interview is the perfect example of the manifestation of this eclipse's energies: That, as the Virgo Moon opposes the Pisces Sun, factual information emerges out of the haze of the confusing nature of the legally demanded release of ALL documents related to Jeffrey Epstein.As per the independent news organization Meidas Touch: “The January 4, 2026, memo, originally flagged by journalist Lisa Rubin, instructed FBI personnel reviewing documents under the Epstein Files Transparency Act to specifically flag certain categories of materials. Among them were FBI 302 forms, which are used to memorialize witness interviews. Those are the very types of records that were previously reported as missing from document productions tied to Epstein-related investigations.“Some of those interviews involve survivors who accused Trump of sexual assault when they were just children. The existence of a directive to flag these records suggests an internal focus on managing or controlling how such materials were handled during the review process.”The question now, as we approach this Virgo Full Moon lunar eclipse is what other hidden information will continue to be revealed going forward—particularly during Mercury's retrograde period AND as the Sun conjoins with Mercury retrograde on March 7? A Sun/Mercury conjunction usually denotes an important announcement of some kind made by someone prominent. However, when Mercury's retrograde, it's likely what we hear will relate to something we've already heard about before. So, whether that's continued denials, more resignations of prominent people associated with Epstein &/or Maxwell, or more hidden information coming to light, keep your ears open as this conjunction waxes now. ANOTHER PRESIDENTIAL PRECEDENT IS BEING SET—FOR BETTER OR WORSE… As former president Bill Clinton testifies today, February 27, we may learn more about his involvement with Jeffrey Epstein or we may not. Either way, however, the important point to recognize here (aka, the “aha!” moment) is how his forced Congressional testimony sets a precedent.This is the first time a president has been forced by subpoena to testify in front of a congressional committee, which now sets the stage for this to happen in the future. When we recognize that this testimony is now taking place during Mercury retrograde, we can assume: 1. That this particular committee doesn't have an astrologer, lol; & 2. That portends future forced testimony by any other president, past or present.Hmm, given that these eclipses also foretell the growing divide between groups who believe in the sanctity of the U.S. Constitution & its inherent right to things like due process, etc., & those who seek to avoid adhering to upholding such rights, any turnover in Congressional majorities may well foretell a future Trump deposition.Hopefully Bill Clinton won't be subjected to questions about UFOs or Pizzagate, as was his wife Hillary. And hopefully, any questions asked yield honest answers about his involvement, if any, with Jeffrey Epstein & his heinous morally derelict “businesses.”The point here is that this issue has gripped democrats, republicans, and independent voters alike based on the sheer disgust most feel for Epstein's “unnatural” sexual perversions that resulted in abuse, slaver, & what the U.N. advisors have labeled “torture” of children & women.So, the message of this set of eclipses now is that such disgust will not be tolerated by the collective—both domestically & internationally--& hence it will not “disappear” as the Pisces Sun may wish right ow.In turn, the ultimate question remains: Will what's happening now cause the ultimate downfall of more people (particularly men proven to be perpetrators guilty of such sexual crimes), including Donald Trump?Join Sheri Horn Hasan for a discussion of all this & more Astro News You Can Use, which the latest podcast drops today @ @ https://www.karmicevolution.com/astrologically-speakingSee you then!

Some may experience enhanced intuition, vivid dreams, heightened imagination, blasts from the past. Watch for: blurred boundaries, confusing communications, active addictions, and projections onto others. Mercury gives us a chance to go back and RE-do things. All the "RE" words can be invoked. Resolve relationship issues, Release old narrative, Reassess Clarity vs. Illusions. Remember communications need more clarity - Revise projects from late January–February.

Patrick McKenzie (patio11) and Luke Farrell examine the structural "technical imagination" gap that prevents the US government from delivering high-fidelity digital services. They discuss why states routinely pay full price 29 times for the same buggy codebase, why failure is the default outcome, and why rooms full of government administrators cannot muster the expertise to say a two line code change should be trivial. They also discuss Luke's work on the "means testing industrial complex,” why the government redundantly pays a private vendor to do a SQL query for information the IRS already knows, and what vendors would say about their own discontents.–Full transcript available here: http://www.complexsystemspodcast.com/understanding-government-procurement-with-luke-farrell/–Presenting Sponsors: Mercury &  FramerIf you have more interesting hobbies than managing your money, Mercury Personal is built for you.

Hello New Paradigmers!There is a patient, powerful wise one, Living within me, Waiting for me to ask and listen, For the guidance that will set me free. ☉Are you ready to reflect for a few (3) weeks on how to best integrate Spirit into your perhaps busy, full, challenging life?  I hope so, because the universe is open for one on one dialogue in these coming days.  It's no mistake He's turning around to go back to Rahu, the dragon's head just in time for the equinox.  It's like heaven putting a sign out "Open Now!"  If you're seeking some guidance on what to do, where to go, with who, for how long, and for what, now is the time to close your eyes and mouth and listen hard for those answers. There is no doubt that Saturn/Neptune, having now completed their third and final conjunction to begin a new 37 year cycle, ARE STARTING OFF SLOW.  Whew!  Nobody like Saturn to put a damper on things.  While world events are almost creating a smoke screen, there is still so much disillusionment to process that we need these three more weeks! While I took Saturn/Neptune through the 12 houses of your personal chart, let's remember that your chart is very complex and you may have felt some of what I said regarding a house if the conjunction is aspecting one of your planets, especially the personal planets (Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, and Mars) near 0 degrees of any sign.  On another note, if they are not aspecting your planets and in one of the more "hidden" houses, you may not be feeling as much deep grief as others.  Just raise your hands in thanks! All in all, this is a beautiful week to reflect, write, paint, dance, sing, or simply give thanks for being alive at this time on planet earth as together we go through the "eye of the needle" together.  Let's all remember that a smile and a twinkle in your eye at the right time in the right place can be a miracle for someone in need.  Blessings on your journey.The song for this week is, I Can See Clearly Now: https://youtu.be/MrHxhQPOO2c?si=k-hYyBD10N_lkvzFSo Much Love,Kaypacha

The Trump administration is announcing it will rollback a Biden-era rule on power plant emissions of mercury, a neurotoxin that impairs cognitive development in young children. The rule mainly affects pollution from plants that burn coal. Unionized Penn Graduate students have reached a tentative agreement with the university, narrowly averting a strike. The agreement comes after more than a year of negotiations. Pennsylvania Hospital is considered the nation’s oldest hospital, opening in Philadelphia in 1751. Now, the hospital’s original site at the Pine Building will become a museum and mark the country’s 250th anniversary celebrations. An Amtrak employee was killed Monday morning after being struck by a train in Lancaster County. Pennsylvania's rape crisis centers say Governor Josh Shapiro's budget - which maintains their funding at flat levels - will worsen staffing and service challenges.

As Mercury retrograde meets Venus in Pisces, themes around love, boundaries, forgiveness, and self-worth are revisited.Between eclipses, much of what is unfolding carries a karmic quality.

Diffusion models changed how we generate images and video—now they're coming for text.In this episode, we sit down with Stefano Ermon, Stanford computer science professor and founder of Inception Labs, to unpack how diffusion works for language, why it can generate in parallel (instead of token-by-token), and what that means for latency, cost, and real-time AI products.We talk through:The simplest mental model for diffusion: generate a full draft, then refine it by “fixing mistakes”Why today's autoregressive LLM inference is often memory-bound—and why diffusion can shift it toward a more GPU-friendly compute profileWhere Mercury wins today (IDEs, voice/real-time agents, customer support, EdTech—anywhere humans can't wait)What changes (and what doesn't) for long context and architecture choicesThe real-world way to evaluate models in production: offline evals + the gold-standard A/B testStefano also shares what's next on Mercury's roadmap—especially around stronger planning and reasoning for agentic use cases.Try Mercury + learn more: inceptionlabs.aiFor more practical, grounded conversations on AI systems that actually work, subscribe to The Neuron newsletter at https://theneuron.ai.
